Deep Thoughts

"Great things are brought about and burdens lightened through the efforts of many hands “anxiously engaged in a good cause.” Imagine what the millions of Latter-day Saints could accomplish in the world if we functioned like a beehive in our focused, concentrated commitment to the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ." M. Russell Ballard October 2012 General Conference

Another Birthday Boy


We add up the candles!  1+9+8=18
Cody turned 18 on January 16!  I am officially old-or else he is!  Every year he wants a Snow Tunnel cake.  Grandma Penny made if for him this year.  We gave him his fancy new church clothes before church so he could wear them when he gave his talk in Sacrament meeting.  After church and Connor's ordination we came home for carne asada and lots of cake.  Cody is an amazing person.  Here are 18 super great things about him.
1.  He is a snappy dresser.  He even has a friend of his alter some of his clothes so they fit better.
2.  He can play the heck out of the piano.
3.  He can sing amazingly.
4.  He can act.
5.  He can argue the paint off the wall.
6.  He has no fear of public speaking.
7.  He is incredibly smart.  31 on his ACT.
8.  He is a good worker.
9.  He is funny.
10.  He is very respectful to girls.
11.  He is very considerate of others and their feelings.
12.When he was little he would listen to the Disney music CD's and do the funniest bouncy dance to the Tiki Room song.
13.  He is a good friend and likes to help his friends by chauffering them around when they need it.
14.  He understands alot about the gospel and the scriptures.
15.  He is helpful with his brothers.
16.  He is very determined.
17.  When he was little and we went on walks he would run ahead of me and just keep running and running.
18.  He knows what is right and will defend his point of view till the cows come home.
